Trauma and Fracture

On any given day, our orthopedic surgeons are working to save a limb, stabilize a complex fracture, correct a deformity, or heal a bone infection. They're working with other doctors, coordinating your care with a rehabilitation specialist, ​or
providing additional training to paramedics.

Our fellowship-trained traumatologists specialize in fracture care and work with a multidisciplinary team of providers to support your comprehensive health.

There are many conditions and problems that can put your limbs at risk—infections, tumors, severe traumatic damage, and more. We offer unique treatment options to help you avoid amputation and maintain your quality of life.

The Limb Restoration Program unites doctors from multiple specialties in the care and preservation of your arm or leg. We meet every week to review and consult on all cases, ensuring collaboration and the best treatment plan for each individual patient.
